The Shelby/Tuscany/Roush/Hennessy/SVC are all garbage; they share a penchant for taking a perfectly good running engine and destroying it by modding it outside of its intended design and purpose. Which is why they underperform and fail.
SVC? Like the SVC that builds all the aftermarket suspension parts and bumpers for the Raptor among other trucks?

I have a 2019 Shelby F150 and a 2023 37PP they are worlds apart the Raptor is so technologically advanced steering, suspension, exhaust 5 link on and on. But I will say the Shelby is fast! I have not had any TRX's beat me and I am only 755hp. I am hoping Ford pulls their heads out to their asses and builds more R's
Put the Shelby on dyno same day as RaptoR. My bet is R will make big amount more power. Rating vs rating.

Yes. Their modified “black window” trucks are a nightmare. Apparently they don’t bother reading the even the basic torque specs, the Super Dutys were being shipped with pitman arms just loose enough that they were triggering DTCs for steering to wheel speed correlation. SCA was zero help and just blamed it on a Ford issue because they had no idea. Luckily Ford Field engineering was able to isolate it to their shoddy work.

EDIT w/corrections: Referring to SCA, not SVC.

Pop passed in 2020 and when I sold the house, highest bid of course, real estate agent "well, I might as well give you all these "Tug at the heart" letters from these 6 folks I got ".
